Trans rebuild advice requested

[john saleeby]

My 87 GN Trans needs to be rebuilt and strengthened. Currently, Alky, THDP, 60 lb injectors, cold air kit, SS exhaust, and stock turbo are on it.

Car only revs and barely inches forward or backward. Stator splines and/or torque converter are bad. I plan on adding a stretch intercooler and ball bearing turbo in a year or so. Car is a daily driver and doesnt go to the track.

What parts and /or upgrades should I have the builder place in the Trans?

Also, what torque converter should I use? Ie stall? popular brand folks use? what would work the best for my set up?

Thank you

Agood shift recalibration kit and servo as well as a true 10.5 2800 stall lockup converter will really net huge gains in performance.I would also consider a billet shaft forward drum to take advantage of more aggressive calibrations needed to keep friction elements alive.I f you would like info on these products they are listed on my website or feel free to email or phone in.
